Answer:
11.4
20/100 = x/57
Step-by-step explanation:
It is perhaps simplest just to translate the given English sentence into a mathematical sentence.
... 20% ... ... of ... 57 ... is ... what number
... 20/100 ... × ... 57 .... = ... what number . . . . . . . . translation to math sentence
... 11.4 = what number . . . . . . . . carry out the multiplication
_____
If you're asked to write this as a proportion, you can write it like this:

You can solve this proportion by multiplying by 57 (the denominator under "what number"). Doing so gives you the same arithmetic sentence as shown above.

- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
x - 5y = -40
18x - 5y = 45
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
18x - 5y = 45
- Multiply both sides by -1: -18x + 5y = -45
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
x - 5y = -40
-18x + 5y = -45
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Combine equations: -17x = -85
- Divide -17 on both sides: x = 5
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Define equation: x - 5y = -40
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 5 - 5y = -40
- Isolate <em>y</em> term: -5y = -45
- Isolate <em>y</em>: y = 9

Answer:
72°
Step-by-step explanation:
The external angle E is half the difference of subtended arcs CG and DF.
E = (CG -DF)/2
2E = CG -DF . . . . . . multiply by 2
DF = CG -2E = 160° -2(44°) . . . . . add DF-2E to both sides; substitute values
arc DF = 72°
